    Left mouse button not working right


    First I thought hardware issueWhen I click the left mouse button it doesn't work. I press it 5-10 times then it may respond once. In the mouse settings if I switch from right to left buttons then the right works fine however when I restart my system it switches back to left. I have tried 4 different mice in different usb ports three wireless and one wired, so it is not a hardware issue. I have tried updating the drivers, can't find any to update.i have checked bios version - they are up to date.tried sfc and dsim scans to fix problemschecked malware, spywarerestarted many timesI noticed th

    How to change left/right buttons on a mouse ?

    How to change left/right buttons on a mouse ?

    I have a left-handed mouse and i want to switch buttons left/right.

    However when i do that in mouse options, left/right buttons on my touchpad are changed as well !! i don't want to change them.

    I want to swap buttons only for one device, how to do it ?

    Win 10 19041

    Using left mouse button and right touchpaper button as Main Button

    Hi Mark

    Yes, your suggestion is logical, however in Windows Mouse/touchpad button configuration is universal, so if the left mouse button is set as the main button, that will also affect the touchpad and vice versa . . .

    Please add this suggestion to the Feedback hub on Windows 10 (Windows Key + F) and hopefully the developers may take notice and provide us with a setting for this in a future update . . .

  4. Left mouse button not working right

    Taskbar left click and right click not working

    Hi Regors,



    Thanks for the update.



    Please reply to a few questions asked below to understand the issue better:


    • Do you get context menu on right clicking on the icons located on the task bar?

    • Are you unable to use the left click mouse option only on the taskbar icons?

    • What is the primary mouse button set at Mouse settings?


    You might have changed the primary mouse button settings from the
    Mouse
    settings page on Windows. To check the primary mouse button set on the PC, follow the steps below:




    • Press Windows logo key on the keyboard, type
      Mouse & touchpad settings and select the top most search result.

    • From the left side panel of the window, check if
      Select your primary button
      under Mouse is set to
      Left
      . If not, select Left from the dropdown bar.

    • Close the window and check if the changes are effective.


    If the issue persists, write to us with the answers to the above questions and the status of the issue for further assistance.



    Thank you.
